I've got some unexpected good news!

I have been notified that I will receive the Women's Justice Legal Scholar Award winner from Missouri Lawyers’ Weekly / Missouri Lawyers Media in April.  Since the statewide award was unsolicited, I am really surprised and honored -- especially since it has always been awarded to a law school professor previously!

Here is some information on the award:

Women's Justice Awards "recognize women across the state of Missouri who have demonstrated leadership, integrity, service, sacrifice and accomplishment in improving the quality of justice and furthering the highest ideals of the legal profession.  The awards reach out to women . . . in the bar, bench, public office, civil service, business, academia, nonprofits . . ."

The Legal Scholar Award is "awarded to women faculty members or administrators . . . who fulfill the above ideals through their own work with the justice system, through their research or scholarship, or through teaching and inspiring others."
